Thanks again for your help! I am concerned for my client's sake the fact that thier site is not performing NEARLY as well for military creed searches. That was the bulk of thier business!
They were on page 1 for most creed type searches in March. Most of these searches were being pointed to
www.justetchinit.com/militarygifts.php. Here is the Google impressions positions from March:
# % Query Position
1 13% best frames 6
2 10% airman's creed 22
3 10% etched glass gifts 4
4 10% security forces creed 5
5 6% paintball keychain 6
6 5% the meaning of the airmans creed 3
7 5% crystal key chain 321

Does Google put penalties on individual pages? They must. The question is, should I just include it my index, submit to Google for reconsideration, or use some other method? Also, is there anything that would cause a penalty on the page now? I am not aware of anything.
